[PATCH] HACKING: Use .guix.scm in 'guix environment' snippet


From: Kyle Meyer
Subject: [PATCH] HACKING: Use .guix.scm in 'guix environment' snippet
Date: Sat, 8 Feb 2020 12:05:23 -0500

* HACKING (Development environment): Simplify the 'guix environment'
snippet by passing the existing .guix.scm to --load rather than
manually listing inputs.

Aside from being less of a mouthful, an advantage of doing this is
that the inputs need to be maintained in only a single spot, avoiding
the list in HACKING becoming stale (as is the case right now because
guile-gcrypt and guile-pfds are missing).  The downside to using
.guix.scm is that it will also bring in texlive-tiny and graphviz,
which are required only for 'make distcheck'.
